The policy should be changed to target what can actually be enforced then. Unenforceable policies on morally neutral behaviors only punish good actors and promote bad ones.
It’s not a neutral behavior though. It’s much easier to spam the site with LLM-written posts, and obviously LLM-written posts are bad for reasons that are related to why it’s obvious they’re LLM-written. If you prevent people from spamming the site with low-effort slop, and some people still use LLMs in a high-effort way to write better posts (even though this is still against the rules), then that’s still a win.
I think we agree that low-effort, unreviewed LLM posts are bad, but this should be targeted instead of high effort cyborg writing. I don’t like it that posts which lightly use LLMs need to use these weird LLM boxes.
